Transformational retreats, an eco-chic boutique hotel, and a vibrant community supporting your journey into joy, embodiment, and belonging.

Where queer SOULS SHINE

AS SEEN ON
From FEELING DIM

Qasa participants have been:

  • Hiding parts of themselves to feel safe
  • Letting shame, fear, or disconnection dim their light
  • Living life on emotional low-volume and stuck in their head
  • Questioning their worth, belonging, or right to take up space
  • Feeling cut off from their body, community, and the natural world
To SHINING bright

After Qasa, people often:

  • Stand unapologetically in their truth and sovereignty
  • Reawaken their body’s delight of pleasure, purpose, and play
  • Feel grounded, alive, and deeply at home in their own skin
  • Tap into the magic of community as a mirror for healing and growth
  • Sparkle with confidence, creative expression, connection, and queer joy

Qasa programs are non-medical and we do not diagnose or treat any conditions. 

They are designed for personal, professional and spiritual development.

Our Mission

Our mission is to co-create a world where queer joy is not an indulgence, but a birthright.

Through immersive retreats, a nature-rooted boutique hotel, and lifelong community, we help queer people reconnect with their full selves – feeling free in their bodies, alive in their joy, and knowing they belong.
